Do you think the increase in administrative jobs and decrease in faculty jobs at specific institutions show a weakness in that specific school?

I have just read an article saying that the college I am attending had less faculty jobs than years before. This worries me slightly and will hamper my goals to get that job I want in life. #teaching #teacher #students

Hi Manveer,


I'm not sure why you might be worried. The administrative jobs help colleges and universities complete the work that has to be done so that the faculty can teach. It could be that the school is expanding and growing - they might need more people to help make that expansion work for everyone. I think your concern should be: what do I want to study? which school offers the best program? how can I prepare myself for that program?


Good luck in your search,


Stephanie
